Joe is Japanese, a new anime about a half-Japanese guy living in Tokyo, reminds me of my childhood. Yeah, I know, I'm not a guy, and my last name is Katayama, not McCunney. But many of the problems the protagonist runs into are familiar to me and other kids growing up on the fringes of Japanese society.
I love how he mixes Japanese words in English sentences and makes English words into Japanese words just as they seem most naturally fit in a dialogue. That's kinda how I talk when I'm in my element. I like it I like it I like it! Will someone please let me know when this show airs?
This is good stuff!
Actually a lot of it will probably ring true to foreigners living in Japan and who can speak decent Japanese.
Anyway, definitely smth to watch out for!
